Promise of the Black Monks
Promise of the Black Monks by Robert E. Hirsch is the riveting story of a young man who is predestined to be the catalyst of war. Torn between his heart and his church, he knows one to be his true love and the other a farce. Impressively well written, this deftly crafted saga of a novel is very highly recommended for community library Historical Fiction collections. For personal reading lists it should be noted that “Promise of the Black Monks” is also available in a Kindle edition ($4.99).
